Searching for a Palmie

Searching for a Palmie

Jessica carried her bucket through the town, swinging it back and forth as she skipped towards the ocean.  She had a plan.  A plan for a new friend.  It was a wonderful plan.  

The bucket was for salt water.  Palmies loved salt water.  But that was the plan.  To catch a Palmie.  They were so cute, but they were also very shy, which made them hard to catch.

Soon, Jessica had reached her destination.  The Anthro Cake Kuhna bent down and scooped up a bucketful of the water.  She soon discovered she was too close to the water's edge.  Most of it was sand.  Eww.  Nothing would want this.  She dumped it out, then took off her little black shoes and her anklelet socks and walked in deeper.  This bucketful was pure salt water.  Well, at least, it was as pure as you can get it straight from the ocean.

Then, she headed home.  Of course, there was another part to her plan.  She needed a bit of luck to help her out as well.  And so she sent a letter to her best friend Mary-Ann. She'd make a wish for her, at the well.  Just the sort of luck she needed.
Its 2:45, the baby takes his first breath
The mother never knew he only had a few left.
And the father gets a call in the middle of the night.
His breathe gets short and his chest gets tight.

But he’s sixteen and he’s driving too fast
Takes a turn to the left, it would be his last.
Nobody knows what happens if he turns to the right
Nobody in the car would have died that night.

But he’s thirty-two and invincible
The cancer that he had, it was visceral.
He never saw it coming, though he had his whole life.
Sick in the morning and he died in the night.

Jessica woke up early the next day.  She knew she could count on Mary-Ann to have already made the wish for her.  And so she dreesed quickly and went outside.

Inside of her greenroom was where she had kept her saltwater.  When she got there, she found most of it was gone!  What had happened.  Jessica looked around suspiciously.  She picked up the bucket, only to discover it was leaking!  How unfair.  She went to the self and got another bucket, prepared to start her journey again.  

And soon, Jessica was back at the ocean.  She scooped up the water and headed back.  It was what the Palmies liked, so it was what the Palmies would get.  She headed back up to  her house, but not before checking the bucket.  No leak.  All good.

Jessica was soon at her house.  She went inside for a moment, drank a glass of water, and then headed out to catch her Palmie.

The forest was thick with trees.  Anyone of them could be a Palmie.  SJessica dumped some of the water on a few of the trees, hoping for one to wiggle and prove it was a Palmie.  It might not happen, but it might.  It would, because Jssica was determined.  She would NOT give up on her precious Palmie.

When none of the trees moved, Jess went back to spreding water on the trees.  One of them, one that seemed much smaller than the others, seemed to twitch.  Jessica bent down, studing it.  "It's okaY, I won't hurt you." she said quietly.  She reached her hand out slowly and started petting the tree.  It didn't move.  After several minutes, Jessica realized it wasn't a Palmie.  Gosh, she felt stupid.

Jessica stood back up and straightened her dress.  This was taking much longer than she had hoped.  Sighing, she picked up her bucket and went back to work.  It wasn't as if she was wasting her time, oh no.  She was going to get that Palmie.  No one, no one, was going to stop her, not today.  Today, she was detirmined.  That Palmie would be hers!

After Jess had spred about half of her bucket on the trees, she sat down to eat some lunch.  She put the bucket of to the side, so that, if a Palmie wanted, it could slurp some up quickly.  She pulled out a bag and reached inside.  Her sandwich was smashed!  Sighing, Jess ate it anyways.  It still taste the same, even though it did look disgusting.

Jessica muched happily on her sandwich.  yummy!  Jessica pulled out a juice drink.  It was apple.  "Darn it." she muttered to herself.  She had packed that accidentally.  She reallly had wanted the fruit punch.  Oh well.  She glanced over to her bucket.  No Palmie.  Maybe one would appear in a few moments.

The palmie, strangely coloured, leaves barely hidden in the low foliage, had been keeping its distance from the strange girl. It watched and waited silently, gaze turning to the bucket of salt water, a treat it enjoyed greatly.

After some time of watching and waiting the palmie cam closer, as silently as was possible on it's smaller legs, it's dark, cherry colour making it fairly obvious now in the bright underbrush.

The palmie stopped at the bucket, leaves shaking frightfully, unsure as to what to do, could it trust the girl to drink the water, which was so tempting. The palmies eyes were on the girl, small stub of a tail shaking. This seemed to be going as well as could be expected. But all that could change in a moment. Being the shy creature it was, all it took was one move and it'd be gone...

Jessica stared at the Palmie.  It was an actual, real live Palmie.  What were the chances?!?  And it seemed to like her, too.  Or, at least, it liked the water.  "Hey there little fella..." she said quietly, with a kind tone to her voice.  "Ya like the water, huh?  Good litttle Palmie... If you'd like, you can have it, all of it."  Jessica didn't want to risk scaring the Palmie away, and the water seemed to be why it was here.  If it liked the water, Jessica could always get more.  "If you'd like more water, you can come with me.", she said, smiling kindly to the nervous Palmie.  "Would you like that?"

It stood stalk still as the girl spoke, but soon calmed down. It's leaves swayed softly, perhaps a sign of it relaxing as it began to drink the natural salt water. It drank slowly at first, watching the creature before it for sudden movements.
As time passed the palmie relaxed, nothing left of it's earlier stiffness.

It was as it would be when alone. It was not stiff and straight, more relaxed. There seemed to be some sort of trust formed between the palmie and the girl. Though it was weak, it was there. All they needed now was time to grow together as friends.

The palmie looked up from the bucket, which was now empty. It's eyes shined with a bright curiosity, leaves swaying happily. It seemed, now that a trust had been formed, the palmie's strange colours could be appreciated better...

(( Well done! It seems as if the palmie has returned your kindness with it's love and trust. You'll receive the Cherry Palmie's code in a PM soon. Congratulations! ^__^ ))

Jessica reached out slowly at patted the Palmie on the head.  It trusted her!  She quickly cleaned up her stuff and started walking home, her Palmie friend following right behind.  This was the start of a great new friendship.  ^^

[Jessica is now leaving^^]
